I am sure.  I had previously copied the old loader to a backup location and 
then copied that to /boot/loader.  Then the cvsup, buildworld kernel and 
install cycle.  The new loader does what all the previous loaders did that 
failed to work correctly.  It would get to a point where I could either 
escape to the #boot prompt and have it use the older loader or go into a 
reboot cycle.  I am currently using the older loader.  Using the older loader 
I have had no problems with the system other than KWrite crashing when doing 
a search.
